As one of the three natural sciences in the IB Diploma Programme, biology is primarily concerned with the study of life and living systems. Biologists attempt to make sense of the world through a variety of approaches and techniques, controlled experimentation and collaboration between scientists. At a time of global introspection on human activities and their impact on the world around us, developing and communicating a clear understanding of the living world has never been of greater importance than it is today. Through the study of DP biology, students are empowered to make sense of living systems and develop an understanding and awareness of the living world around them.
There is no formal requirement for prior knowledge of biology to study IBDP HL or SL biology. Your interest and curiosity in the fascinating realm of biology are essential for a successful journey through this subject. GCSE or equivalent knowledge of biology or combined science is recommended. A good understanding of GCSE or equivalent mathmetics is also beneficial to your learning. Language: IELTS 5.5 or equivalent
We have half-termly and termly assessments. We also have final assessments at the end of each academic year. Grades are determined by final IB external examinations, which take place in May/June at the end of the 2-year course, and the IB internal assessment which consists of one task: the scientific investigation.
